Have a fine day, ok?
Love the cup 😍
 
Idk which I like best out of that group!!!
Case really needs to bring back the punch on the Stockman series!
For what it is worth, I think you can still get that combo with black delrin, CS, and a punch. I am not sure if it is a distributor exclusive or not from a hill named big distributor, but you may be able to snag it there.
 
For Easter Sunday a masterpiece from @Cosimo De Benedetto - Roma

Absolutely love those bolsters, Will! :thumbsup::thumbsup:


That’s a quality pair, Paul! (You can tell I’m catching up on this thread, because I don’t think you even have that blade-swapped Bunny Knife anymore.) 🤣

Road signs are in miles as are our speedos,we fill up in litres but talk about MPG (I haven’t a clue in litres).

We measure wood in inches then go and buy it in metric units,thank goodness beer is still sold in pints…

We drive on the left which is the right side. 😂

Makes sense! 🥴😁

The B.F. Stockman again today.

The dye job makes all the difference on those! Been loving mine ever since I got it back from Travman Travman and Nathan!

44 years ago was a Saturday. That's the day I married a fine young woman. I chose well. We rented a banquet hall, or was it her Dad who paid for it? Can't remember.

This was before the unfortunate demise of live wedding bands in favor of deejays. We won a free cake and photo package at a "wedding show" I'd been dragged to, so we had extra $ to hire a good band.
So we hired a really good jazz wedding band.

The first time we met, I was playing fiddle tunes on my guitar on the front porch swing of our rented house just off campus in Urbana Illinois. She and her friend Ruth were walking by, and stopped, then came up to talk. Never forgot that she commented that I was not playing in time with the creaking of the swing.
To this day, she is my sounding board on my playing abilities, such that they are, and has been there every time I have played for an audience ~ 30 years +/- . It's usually, but not always a good review, but I always listen to her after gig comments.
It's a good thing that she appreciates knives and guitars, or she might not have worked out.

Belated congrats on the anniversary, Jeff. That’s a great story!


Looks refreshing! 🙂


That pair would cover about 99.9% of my daily cutting needs. :thumbsup:


Great pic with the pups in the background! 😁

Those Dia-Sharps are excellent.

That’s my go-to sharpening method. I’ve got two 8” x 3” Dia-Sharps in Fine and Extra Fine that easily handle most of the knives I need to sharpen.

Thank you for the kind wish. I can't say things are going well, but things are happening and some progress has been made. I've been diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The idiopathic part just means the cause is unknown. Its progressive and there is no cure. I started on a drug two weeks ago which will hopefully slow the progression. I'm seeing a rheumatologist who is investigating a possible auto-immune connection. If a cause can be determined, it may be treatable. The fibrosis has apparently been going on for some time now. My bout with pneumonia last fall caused an acute exacerbation where it got a lot worse all at once. At this point, the best outcome is the drug will slow the progression down enough that I will live long enough for something else to kill me 😜 Something gets us all eventually ;)
Regardless, I've got a few years left 🥳 🤞
In one of life's little ironies this is a lung disease that wasn't caused by my past history of smoking.

Probably more than you wanted to know :)

To avoid further thread hijack. today's carry thus far:

Sorry to hear that, Mike. Best of luck with everything!

I just felt like having some heavy pockets today... Don't ask me why... I'm not sure myself 🤣

Seems like a belt and suspenders type of situation. 🤣


You must really like that one! 😉😁

Here’s an extra pic I took yesterday of the Rosewood HHB I had with me.
